Re: [EURO-Discuss] NOW OPEN: 2013 ALAC ALT and Liaison Nominations
by Alan Greenberg Nov. 13, 2013

Nov. 13, 2013

According to the RoP, there are a total of five ALAC Leadership Team (ALT) positions, one from each of the five regions, and Olivier from EURALO is already in the position of Chair. I also note that there is a minor issue in the call for nominations in that under the new RoP, we no longer have a rapporteur and it should be vice-chairs instead of vice-presidents. I nominate the following for the ALT: Tijani Ben Jemaa (AFRALO) - Vice-chair Evan Leibovitch (NARALO) - Vice-chair Holly Raiche (APRALO) Dev Anand Teelucksingh (LACRALO) I of course support the nomination of Maureen Hilyard as ccNSO Liaison, and I nominate Julie Hammer as SSAC Liaison Last year I agreed to serve as GNSO Liaison with the understanding that we would consciously get more people involved in GNSO activities. That has not happened to any great extent. As such, if the ALAC desires, I am willing to continue to serve in this capacity, but with the understanding that we take posative action to get someone else into the role as quickly as possible.

Invitation: Conference on Global Internet Governance in Bern, 6-7 December
by William Drake Nov. 13, 2013

Nov. 13, 2013

Hi Mira Burri of the World Trade Institute (WTI) and I are organizing the Biannual Conference of the Swiss Network of International Studies (SNIS) at the WTI, University of Bern on Friday – Saturday December 6th – 7th. The event is titled, The Institutionalization of Global Internet Governance: Multistakeholderism, Multilateralism and Beyond, and will feature some leading analysts of Internet governance presenting draft memos that will subsequently grow into chapters for an edited book we'll publish late next year. As the name suggests, this is an effort to pull back from the various debates concerning multilateral vs multistakeholder vs other global governance architectures and set the questions in a broader framework focused on the processes of international institutionalization and institutional design. By exploring shared analytical concerns with respect to concrete cases, we hope to provide greater clarity about the costs/benefits of different design choices, highlight practices worth replicating or avoiding, identify generalizable lessons learned, and so on. We believe a conference and book along these lines will be rather timely and could make a real contribution to advancing the global debate. If this is of interest to anyone in Euralo, we’d love to have you there. The program and registration are at http://www.snis.ch/node/8146. If you have any questions, please let me know. Thanks for considering this invitation. Best, Bill ********************************************************** William J.

As you know, all communications made by TaC during its engagement in the Licences for Europe Working Group 2 are publicly available at the European Commission website dedicated to the working Group (http://ec.europa.eu/licences-for-europe-dialogue/en) TaC believes in cooperation and dialogue, therefore the author of the EDRI communication has been asked to remove the mentioned defamatory content and is informed about the legal consequences of disseminating information of aggressive and defamatory nature. Please find attached the open statement prepared by TaC President, which is publicly communicated in different communities. I look forward to working together, With best regards, Yuliya Morenets TaC-Together against Cybercrime International

Call for volunteers:Working Group to develop policy recommendations on issues relating to the accreditation of privacy and proxy service providers for domain name registrations.
by ICANN At-Large Staff Nov. 7, 2013

Nov. 7, 2013

In Brief The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council seeks volunteers to serve on a Working Group to develop policy recommendations on issues relating to the accreditation of privacy and proxy service providers for domain name registrations. What This Team Will Do The Working Group (WG) is tasked to provide the GNSO Council with a set of recommendations regarding issues identified during the recently-concluded negotiations for the new 2013 Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA), including recommendations made by law enforcement and GNSO working groups, that were not addressed during the negotiations and otherwise suited for a Policy Development Process (PDP); specifically, issues relating to the accreditation of privacy & proxy services. Specific issues to be discussed by the WG are detailed in the WG’s charter: http://gnso.icann.org/en/drafts/raa-pp-charter-22oct13-en.pdf How This Team Will Work ICANN Working Groups use transparent, open processes. The meetings of this WG will be recorded, and the recordings will be available to the public. The mailing list for the WG will be archived publicly. WG members are expected to submit Statements of Interest (SOI<https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosoi/New+SOIs>). The group will collaborate using a public workspace. The WG is expected to follow the GNSO Working Group Guidelines<http://gnso.icann.org/council/annex-1-gnso-wg-guidelines-08apr11-en.pdf>. How to Join The GNSO Council invites interested parties to join the WG, which will be open to anyone interested to join. Community members who wish to be invited to join the group should contact the GNSO secretariat<mailto:gnso.secretariat@icann.org?subject=Application%20to%20Join%20Uniformity%20of%20Reporting%20Drafting%20Team> (gnso.secretariat(a)icann.org<mailto:gnso.secretariat@icann.org>). Background In October 2011, the ICANN Board initiated negotiations with the Registrars Stakeholder Group for a new form of RAA, and simultaneously requested an Issue Report from the GNSO on issues not covered by the negotiations and otherwise suited for a PDP. The Final Issue Report was published in March 2012, and recommended that the GNSO commence its PDP as soon as possible after receiving a report that the negotiations were concluded. In June 2013, the ICANN Board formally approved the new 2013 RAA. In September 2013, ICANN staff published a paper for the GNSO reporting on the conclusion of the RAA negotiations and highlighting that of all the high and medium priority topics for the negotiations previously identified by the GNSO and the law enforcement community, only two were not fully addressed in the negotiations, viz. clarification of certain registrar responsibilities in relation to proceedings under the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP), and issues relating to privacy and proxy services, including their accreditation and Relay/Reveal procedures. The UDRP questions have, however, been dealt with in a separate PDP that concluded with the publication of a Final Report in June 2013 and its adoption by the GNSO Council in August 2013. Following a number of discussions on the topic, the GNSO Council formally approved the charter for this RAA Privacy & Proxy Services Accreditation Issues WG at its meeting on 31 October 2013. As ICANN has already committed itself to establishing an accreditation program for privacy and proxy service providers, the recommendations from this WG are expected to inform the development of such a program. In addition, there continues to be ongoing work on various aspects of the Whois gTLD registration data directory service, including the creation of an Expert Working Group (EWG) in December 2012 that is expected to assist ICANN in redefining the purpose and provision of gTLD registration data directory services. The EWG published its Initial Report in June 2013 and is currently working on its Final Report. In addition, the GNSO had previously commissioned a study on Whois Privacy & Proxy Abuse. The results of the study, performed by the National Physical Laboratory in the United Kingdom, were published for public comment in September 2013. It is expected that the study will be relevant to the deliberations of this WG. This WG is an opportunity for the GNSO and other interested community members to help develop specific recommendations that will assist ICANN in developing a privacy and proxy accreditation program in relation to gTLD registration data directory services. Thank you, Regards, Heidi Ullrich, Silvia Vivanco, Matt Ashtiani, Gisella Gruber, Nathalie Peregrine and Julia Charvolen ICANN Policy Staff in support of ALAC E-mail: staff(a)atlarge.icann.org<mailto:staff@atlarge.icann.org>

Internet Governance Webinar Conversation Opportunity With ICANN Senior Executives
by ICANN At-Large Staff Nov. 7, 2013

Nov. 7, 2013

The call details are as follows: Adigo Call Numbers : http://adigo.com/icann Adigo Conference Bridge No. Conference ID: 45151321 Adobe Connect: https://icann.adobeconnect.com/icann-soac ------------------------ Internet Governance Webinar Conversation Opportunity With ICANN Senior Executives Dear SOAC Leaders; Based on recent discussions within the broader community and your feedback over the past couple of weeks regarding the Montevideo statement, we think it would be most useful to have a community call before everyone departed for the ICANN Public Meeting in Buenos Aires to discuss recent Internet governance developments – specifically the Montevideo statement - and plans for a broader Internet stakeholder meeting in Brazil next year. Fadi has had or is planning a few individual conversations with community groups, but we thought some broader community engagement opportunities with ICANN senior executives would also be helpful so that Fadi, Tarek and Theresa could: § Provide background and context of the recent I-Star discussions leading to the Montevideo statement; § Explain the Board/Staff partnership in this effort; § Explain what has been done to date and share perceptions of the recent IGF-Bali meeting; and § Highlight next steps/prep plans for Brazil next April. As a result, we have arranged for two community webinars scheduled for next Friday, 8 November at 1200 UTC and 1900 UTC so that the team can share its thoughts and field community questions and comments. We are scheduling two separate sessions to cover the global geographic spread of the community and hope that you will be able to share information about the opportunity with your communities. Each session will be an hour long and any questions or comments that the team can’t get to on the calls will be saved for further discussion in Buenos Aires. The call details are as follows: Adigo Call Numbers : http://adigo.com/icann Adigo Conference Bridge No. Conference ID: 45151321; Adobe Connect: https://icann.adobeconnect.com/icann-soac To help the team prepare for the sessions, please feel free to share any pre-session questions that you have with me.
